that the brand of lying bragga which
we put upon P. X. Mayors was the right
one. He busters about his warlike in

trudes into the controversy. with lies OF
his own invention, matters that have no
relevance, and with which he has nc
concern. The writer's ''peace bond,'
behind which he lodges, is no affair of
his, and we give him fair warning, that
when he 'crews his courage up to the
point of trying to prove that he is some
thing more than clustering coward,

investigation, sums up the situation Of
the Southern crops, at this date, as fol
lows. We can safely say that it j,
accurate as to Mississippi: IL The cot
ton crop up to to-day is the best ever
known in the South. (2.) The cotton
crop is the best in ten years. 60 The
cotton and corn crop combined is the
best the South has ever known, the only
danger to cotton being an early frost,
practically no danger at all, as the crop
is at least two weeks early.

Cured Wednesday evening of this week,
and in the Episcopalian church OF Jack
son, the bishop of the diocese himself pre-
siding, both the doctor aud his wife being
active members of that church. Mrs Eu
gene A. Guilbert, nee Miss Florence Yer
ger, comes of an old and prominent Missis-
sippi family. Her father, the late Judge
VIM. Yerger, it may be a matter of inter
est to mention, was before the war OF the
rebellion Il pronounced Unionist, and
stumped the State against the secession
heresy. As DR.. Eugene A. Guilbert has
been a Dubuquer almost since his birth, II
gives us pleasure to advert to the notable
position he has achieved during the past
few years in Jackson. Inheriting literary
tastes, he has been since January last exer-
cising them creditably as editor in-chief of
a widely circulated medical journal Of his
school. In his profession, to which he has
been thoroughly trained, he has won al
ready a distinguishable reputation in
Jackson. HIS career in the South is sub
stantial proof that a cultured and self
respected Northern man can succeed pro-
tessionaIly and socially.
Jackson AND DUBUQUE.-Between the
hours of and 6 yesterday afternoon the
residence of Dr. E. A. Guilbert was
crowded with the creme de Ia creme of Du-
buque society, the occasion being the re-
ception rendered the bride Of the doctors
eldest son, DIR. Eugene A. Guilbert, now OF
Jackson, Miss. The Herald doubts if the
far-famed hospitality of the Sunny South
could have excelled the cordial and genu-
inc reception which was given Mrs. Eu-
gene A. Guilbert yesterday. The pleasant
home of the well-known senior DR.. Gull
bert was handsomely decorated with flow
ers in honor of the new daughter-in-law
Elaborate refreshments and music by the
Italian band were features of the occasion.
This is Mrs. Guilbert's first visit to the
North, with one of whose sons she has be-
come allied. She will carry with her
when she returns to her lovely Sou hern
home, very pleasant remembrances of
Northern society.-Herald, Aug. 2.
